The Natural and Engineering Sciences' Program seeks to advance the scientific level of its academic programs to the top of what could be a center of vocational ambition in terms of educational infrastructure and human resources excellence in teaching. The program tries to link its theoretical and practical sides together in a way that enables its students to apply several projects during their studies and prepare them to perform practical and technical tasks associated with the courses they studied as well as the needs of the marketplace. The program provides opportunities for students to enroll in one of the government and private agencies for the summer training to refine their talents and prepare them for the marketplace.
With the increasing importance of telecommunications and computer networks and databases as a result of the observed growth for the tasks and duties within different sectors, and the needs of these sectors to link their local and international branches, the Natural and Engineering Sciences' Program has launched Diploma in Communications & Computer Networks and Diploma in Programming and Databases, as a response to the requirements of the marketplace. Therefore, the curriculum for the Communications & Computer Networks Diploma is designed for the provision of students with knowledge and skills needed to work in the field of networking including its installation, maintenance and management, and security, besides assessing its performance. The Diploma of Programming and Databases is also designed to develop students' capacity in this field, and train them in modern programming techniques through intensive practical applications, and the identification of databases in term of their design and maintenance, besides providing students with professional training to deal with different operating systems.
